#the meme collection is strictly beatles/mcr crossover memes

PhDay 100: oh shit it's been 100 days already??

I feel like I haven't accomplished much for 100 days, but lately I've been swamped with marking / stalled by technical difficulties (stuff I need in the lab is not here).

Wins: presented a poster at a conference. first experience as a TA in undergrad labs. went abroad for an experiment. 2000 words in a draft thesis outline. 2.5 months on T. can play guitar slightly better.

Oofs: bad choice of course for credits ('twas neither fun nor helpful). delays in getting stuff for experiment. embarrassing amount of time spent cultivating meme collection for my desk.

Looking forward to: christmas party. getting my experiment setup functioning. going home for christmas and trying to explain physics to my family.
